641 power steering

I just started loosing PS fluid but it isn"t showing any leakage anywhere. Could it be leaking into the tranny?

How much have you lost?
I can leak in two hidden places for a maybe pint or so.
One, if the lower seal in the column is shot it can fill the lower box till it squirts out of the breather.
Or if the upper seal is leaking it would fill the upper tube till it started coming out from under the steering wheel.
On a 641 if it was leaking downward somehow it would go into the bell housing not into the tranny and you'd see it coming out where the cotter pin is under ther but it would take both a bad lower seal And a cracked box for that to occur.
Not likely.

ditto what UD said.

additionally, check all line connections, pulley hub and cyl rams. all areas that a drip leak can occur, and betweent hem all and time.. might be small enough to not notice.
